I think it would be best if you only play the shine effect once. After that still image.

The single flash was much, much more effective. Repeating it just lessens the impact.

3 should be the absolute max. I think a sort of ping pong back and forth once might also work well.

I'd make it shake rather than flash more than once (What Atnas said would be best in my opinion).
